i agree about Clark...i thought that was a pretty impressive comment to make in her interview. idk about Juhasz---i'm guessing she has always been infatuated with UConn in the back of her head. now, the opportunity has risen (no idea if UConn tried to recruit her in the beginning?). odds are she has an excellent chance of being on at least one National Championship team now, and that was a pretty strong pull for her. makes you wonder if word trickled down to her that if she entered the portal, UConn would take her. kinda happened rather fast.

Moseley names assistants: Merrit from Illinois Barnosky from Boston College (worked with Moseley last 3 seasons) Doty (former UConn player-had position with Nike) https://uwbadgers.com/news/2021/4/9/womens-basketball-moseley-completes-coaching-staff.aspx

OSU asst coach Simon Harris leaving to take a head coaching position.

McGuff starting to feel a little heat in Ohio?... from Columbus Dispatch: "But plain and simple, the program has not improved under McGuff, definitely not when considering NCAA Tournament results. To the contrary, a scent of dysfunctional “uh-oh” fills the air. The Buckeyes’ reputation took a hit in December when the school self-reported NCAA violations involving a former assistant coach committing recruiting violations and violating Ohio State’s sexual harassment policy. The school followed its internal investigation by self-imposing a ban on participation in this season's Big Ten and NCAA tournaments. Smith has told me he likes his head hitting the pillow every night knowing coaches in OSU’s 36 sports are not causing compliance headaches. McGuff was not implicated in the NCAA rules violations, but they happened on his watch, which has to upset his athletic director’s sleep cycle. What am I saying, that McGuff needs to go? Not necessarily. The program is not a mess. True, some bad optics have been in play — guard Kierstan Bell, honorable mention all-Big Ten as a freshman, transferred last April after one season; andDorka Juhasz, the Buckeyes’ leading rebounder and second-leading scorer this season, has entered the transfer portal with two seasons of college eligibility remaining — but enough talent returns to make 2021-22 ripe with possibility. Aye, but there’s the rub. At some point, results need to match potential. Or do they? McGuff has flown under the radar pretty well so far. Maybe he can survive the ride, even if next season the Buckeyes bomb out before they should." [email protected] @rollerCD

i noticed Prince is sitting at #21 in Hoopgurlz class of 2024

Drake's coach to Oklahoma... https://soonersports.com/news/2021/4/10/womens-basketball-baranczyk-named-head-womens-basketball-coach.aspx

with all the excitement about Markowski coming in (and i am included) have fans kinda pushed aside what Tatiana Popa may bring? i know i had completely forgot about her in an earlier post. i just watched video highlights of her---can shoot the 3, no doubt a big body, looked like she can be kinda scrappy-maybe a little stronger with the ball than Kate? leg work may need some attention, though. it will be interesting to see how she adjusts. i can see her causing problems around the bucket.

the only thing i have seen is the comment by coach where she stated they "believe" Porter has avoided any major surgery. the comment was made approximately a week or so after the injury. probably won't hear any more until Porter can start workouts again. how things go could be something to watch.

from msu to illinois

https://gopsusports.com/news/2021/4/9/womens-basketball-penn-state-adds-george-washington-transfer-ali-brigham.aspx Ali Brigham | 6-4 | Center | Franklin, Mass. | Franklin High School | George Washington The six-foot-four center and Atlantic 10 All-Rookie team member led the Colonials in scoring as a freshman. when PSU picked up Carolyn Keiger from Marquette....i stated they got a "good one". she is going to turn PSU into a contender. will be interesting to see if PSU can hang on to her...imo, her name will be showing up on any "top programs" list should there be an opening in the future. Kelly Jekot (sp?) Lady Lion's top scorer announced she will return.

as long as no one transfers, i believe. coach was asked the question about transfers in her interview....paraphrasing, but, she said something along the lines the way things are in college basketball nowadays, you try to prepare for anything.

just talking hs girls basketball for a second. i just watched Chad Greenway's daughter play. a 7th grader and she has it all. good ball handler, court awareness, range and looks to drive the ball to the basket. she is going to continue Minnesota's crop of excellent guards coming out of that state. i would be willing to bet she has a lot of eyes on her already. she is that good.

oh, absolutely. i was just stating that i didn't think she had a "Juhasz" season. like i said, one game i watched she looked like herself---however, i saw a couple games where she didn't look like herself at all (for whatever reason)...but, yeah no doubt i would take her.

best of luck Kate...no matter where that path leads. thank you for being a Husker!

wouldn't surprise me if she ends up at a school like UConn, Louisville, Notre Dame, Maryland....one of the "blue bloods"? never know though.

WOW! i didn't think she looked like the same player this season....she had flashes, but, something seemed awry to me.

i see Maryland wbb announced all four seniors will take advantage of the 5th year eligibility and return.

Kennedi Myles (illinois) and Karissa McLaughlin announce they are going to play for Marquette

if she was looking at the huskers, i would take her!
